Well depending on your operating system you may be able to get by with something like this:

#include <stdlib.h>
#include <iostream.h>
void main()
{
		cout<<"Boring..."<<endl;
		system("color 0B");
		cout<<"AMAZING!"<<endl;
}
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <iostream.h>
void main()
{
		cout<<"Boring..."<<endl;
		system("color 0B");
		cout<<"AMAZING!"<<endl;
}
